Take action!

Under the moonlight, by a river.

Two wandering ninjas finally met up with someone.

In the forest, Shuichi Hoshita and the other four watched silently.

The person who met him didn't have any obvious Sand Ninja characteristics, but looked like a wandering samurai.

The distance was too far to hear what the two parties were saying, and Shuichi Hoshita didn't know how to read lips.

In less than 5 minutes, the meeting was over.

The wandering ninjas returned, and Shuichi Hoshita and the others immediately hid.

In the dark, Minato Namikaze made a secret signal with hand gestures.

Track the person who met him!

However, the person who met him like a wandering samurai was very cautious and actually ran downstream on the river.

Shuichi Hoshita and the other four followed him all the way in the forest.

After walking nearly 10 miles, Minato Namikaze once again conveyed the order with hand gestures.

Take action!

Still divided into two groups, Shuichi Hoshita and Minato Namikaze in one group, went around to intercept. Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo went into the river to chase.

After the order, Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo immediately changed direction, got out of the forest, rushed into the river obliquely, ran fast on the river, and chased the wandering samurai in front.

The wandering samurai naturally felt it, and looked back in the moonlight: "Konoha!"

"Two little ghosts?"

The wandering samurai immediately realized that there was a high possibility that someone would go around to intercept him.

"You underestimate me, don't you?"

The wandering samurai sneered, turned around and rushed towards Uchiha Shisui and the others without hesitation.

He had to get rid of the two little ghosts first.

In the forest, Minato Namikaze immediately took Shuichi Hoshita out to kill.

And Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo stopped immediately.

Swish, swish, swish!

Uchiha Shisui threw out the shuriken, and Kurama Sanyo quickly formed seals with both hands.

The wandering samurai flexibly avoided the flying shuriken, but Uchiha Shisui suddenly pulled with his right hand, and the thin steel wire on the shuriken immediately pulled, and the three shurikens quickly changed their direction and trajectory, encircling the wandering samurai from three different directions.

Almost at the same time, Kurama Sanyo completed the ninjutsu.

Illusion-This is not the art!

This is an illusion that affects the enemy's vision, so that the scene seen by the enemy is not the real scene.

At this moment, Kurama Sanyo wanted to interfere with the trajectory of the shuriken seen by the wandering samurai.

The wandering samurai drew his sword, cut the steel wire, and knocked away two shurikens in succession, but he missed the third one.

Puff!

The shuriken was inserted into the wandering samurai's right arm, and blood flowed, dyeing the river red.

The screams of pain from the wandering samurai were also unusually loud in the silent night.

"Damn it!"

The illusion was lifted, the wandering warrior roared, the river water exploded under his feet, his figure jumped up, and the samurai sword slashed at Uchiha Shisui.

"Retreat!"

Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo retreated decisively.

The wandering warrior missed a move, and just as he was about to chase, he heard a sound of breaking air in his ears.

He turned his head and saw a kunai flying at him. His pupils couldn't help but dilate, and his figure staggered, and the kunai almost brushed his face.

But before he could happily avoid the attack, a figure appeared in front of him and grabbed the kunai.

"You..."

The wandering warrior was shocked, and just as he opened his mouth, he was hit by a heavy punch from Minato Namikaze, and his words were swallowed back. His feet left the river and flew backwards. When his figure fell, he was hit by a whip kick from Xingxia Xiu who happened to arrive. He fell into the river with a bang and fainted completely.

Hideichi Hoshita fished the man out of the river and quickly brought him ashore.

The next interrogation was naturally led by Uchiha Shisui.     Although he only had a single magatama Sharingan, his attainments in illusion were actually better than Kurama Sanyo.

After being beaten, the willpower of the wandering samurai had been weakened, and in less than 10 minutes, Uchiha Shisui got the information.

This guy was indeed a Sand Ninja, and a Chunin named Togawa Ryo.

In addition, he was not the only one who carried out this mission, but a team of four.

The other three were one Jonin and two Chunin.

The Sand Ninja Jonin was a senior Jonin, and the two Chunins were both perception ninjas.

The source of information for the bandits led by the wandering ninja was them.

And the purpose was roughly the same as what Hideichi Hoshita had previously speculated.

The two wandering ninjas originally enslaved the small mountain village until they were found by Dengchuan Ling and others, and then they pulled the young and strong men in the village as strong men, and with the information provided by the Sand Ninjas, they crossed the border and entered the Fire Country to commit crimes.

After just one time, the young and strong men in the village were completely unable to extricate themselves.

So the two wandering ninjas also moved into the village and abandoned the base on the mountain.

The purpose of the Sand Village is to use this bandit group to provoke the relationship between the Fire Country and the River Country, and then take the opportunity to eat up the task volume of the River Country.

Tomorrow, the bandits will act again, but this time the information given by the Sand Village is wrong, and they will run into the border patrol team of Konoha Village.

Then a battle broke out, the bandits were defeated, and their lair was discovered by the Konoha ninjas, and then they took revenge and massacred the village.

Even if Konoha and the Fire Country can restrain themselves, they will inevitably hold the River Country accountable.

Of course, there is a risk of exposure in the process of the Sand Village.

Therefore, tomorrow, Dengchuan Ling and his team will also take action, kill the two stray ninjas in the chaos, and take away the bodies.

"The Sand Village is too abominable!"

Kurama Sanyo said angrily.

Hoshita Shuichi and Uchiha Shisui nodded.

This plan is indeed extremely vicious.

And the cost is small and the benefits are great.

The plan is not difficult to implement.

The situation in the ninja world is relatively calm now, and Konoha's patrol of the border of the Land of Fire is not strong, so it is relatively easy to find loopholes.

Minato Namikaze looked at Ryo Nogawa on the ground and pondered for a while, then looked up at Shuichi Hoshita and the other two and asked, "What do you think of the next action?"

Kurama Sanyo immediately said, "Teacher Minato, we should immediately capture this guy's companions as well, preferably alive."

"And notify the border patrol team to keep the two wandering ninjas alive."

"In this way, these evidences can be sent to the Daimyo of the River Country, letting him know the ambitions of the Sand Village and completely turn to our Konoha."

Minato Namikaze looked at Shisui Uchiha.

Shisui Uchiha said, "Teacher Minato, I agree with Sanyo's opinion. If Ryo Nogawa doesn't go back in time, the Sand Ninja will definitely notice something is wrong."

Minato Namikaze nodded, and finally looked at Shuichi Hoshita.

Shuichi Hoshita also had a plan in mind, so he said: "Capture the Sand Ninja Team, notify the border patrol team, report the situation to the Third Hokage, and ask the Third Hokage to make the decision."

"After all, this mission involves the River Country and the Sand Village. How to decide and deal with the relationship between them can only be decided by the Third Hokage."

After hearing this, Minato Namikaze had a look of admiration in his eyes, but he didn't show it, and said: "Now we will split into two groups, Shisui, Sanyo, Shuichi, you take Norikawa Ryo back to the Fire Country Border, assist the patrol team to capture the two stray ninjas and the bandits, preferably alive. "

Kurama Sanyo was shocked: "Minato teacher, you are alone..."

Hoshita Hideichi smiled and said: "Sanyo, obey Minato teacher's orders, we should believe in the teacher's strength."

Namikaze Minato smiled: "Okay, it's decided."

As he said, he took out a special Flying Thunder God Kunai and gave it to Uchiha Shisui, saying: "Shisui, take this, I will rush back as quickly as possible. "
